Oyndarfjørður run takes place on Saturday

Machine-translated from Faroese and not yet reviewed. Read the original.

As last year, Ítróttarfelagið í Oyndarfirði and Roysnið are organising a race from Skálabotnur to Oyndarfjørður. This is an unusual race: the first five kilometres or so are all uphill, up to Heltnin. Then comes a long downhill towards Oyndarfjørður, and the last two kilometres or so are completely flat. The course is about 11.5 kilometres in total.

Oyndrarenning
From the start last year, when both well-known running faces and locals from Oyndarfjørður set off and took on Heltnin.

The race starts by Effo in Skálabotnur at 11:00. Registration takes place at the Effo station one hour before the start. There will therefore be no online registration. The race will be run in these categories:

  • women and men born 1985 and later (0–30 years)
  • women and men born 1975–1984 (31–40 years)
  • women and men born 1974 and earlier

There will be no open category. Medals will be awarded to the winners. After the race, soup and water will be available.

After showers, soup and the medal presentation, transport will be arranged back to Skálabotnur for anyone who has left their car there.

The entry fee is DKK 50.
